1.
Alone with all the things that I've done. Living and thinking in minutes. My small days spill into light years. Now I can pretend to live a life of starting over. Forget what I used to be. There are dead stars whose light is trapped forever in time. How can I stand inside the light?

Hiccups 04:16
It's not clear what's outside to draw you and others there. A search for what you don't have, maybe you weren't meant to find it. Close the door, lock the gate, we've got everything we need. A pattern of leaving and moving, you're still empty handed. What we have is a generator, all you've found is a magnet. Make something yourself.

Lautrec 02:50
I can't breathe this stale air, the walls are closing in. The lamp is burned out, I haven't slept in weeks. Dressers decorate the walls, I hope they hold. Doors are off their hinges, I haven't been back since. The light peeks through the cracks, 53 days in this house. Enclosing footsteps, destroying the doors, the sound is deafening. They're coming, and they keep coming in waves.
4.
A front room with wooden floors, lights are flashing. An office with wooden doors, walls are crumbling. A basement with wooden stairs, they're breaking. This old house is creaking so I'll stay outside. Drag me in, it's too cold to stay out here. Friends we remember, times we never forget.
5.
Bike Notes 02:46
Chicago steals the stars in the sky, at least it's willing to share. Thanks for keeping me in mind, but I think I'll stay in tonight. No more bike rides late at night, no more walks home under the streetlight. But those lights wake you up when the trains put you to sleep.
6.
You advance with your head turned back, what you see is behind you. Do your journeys take place only in the past? Because the past changes according to the route you follow. Each new city, you'll find again a past you did not know you had. In foreign, unpossessed places.
